A real highlight - but recommended during the week or when the weather is not too nice. Otherwise there are too many people around.

I had been meaning to finally walk through this area for a long time. Although the area doesn't seem to be very touristy, there are a lot of lovely rest areas. Still very idyllic and quiet.
Nature was literally exploding, I couldn't get enough of the many herbs, and the trees were also a vibrant green. A wonderful time of …

There were even guided tours today at the fourth light hole in the Rothschönberger tunnel, which prompted me to come back in the afternoon. I was early in the morning. There was …

Since a visit to the Christmas market in Freiberg was on the agenda today, we decided to go for a hike in the Bobritzsch valley nearby.
The path always led us along the crystal-clear, cheerfully bubbling stream of the Bobritzsch. A wonderfully romantic hiking trail, which is also mostly suitable for cycling. The weather wasn't quite so kind to us, …
